Google not visiting my site

[ClaireH-184886]

Hi my site www.in2town.co.uk which is a lifestyle magazine has gone under a major refit. I am still working on it but it should be ready by the end of this week or sooner but one problem i have is, google is not visiting the site.

I took a huge gamble to redo the site, even though before the refit i was getting a few thousand visitors a day, i wanted to make the site better as i was getting google webmaster errors.

But now it seems google is not visiting the site. for example i am using sh404sef and i have put friendly url in the site and on the home page it has its name and meta tag but when you look at google it is not giving the site a name. Also it has not visited the site since october 13th

Can anyone advise how to encourage google to visit the site please.

Go to google and type in site:www.in2town.co.uk

you'll see that google in fact has been crawling your site, because if it wasn't nothing would show up. I would suggest double checking your webmaster tools account and sitemap to make sure everything's set up properly.

You should check your meta description tags because all your top results say "Joomla! - the dynamic portal engine and content management system."

I guess you could try too use Google webmasters tools to add the site again: http://www.google.com/webmasters

Edit:

Maxwell: It was my understanding that google ignores the META Description? I would assume that the reason for that text is that google crawled the site when it was undergoing upgrades/construction.

The last time it visited the site was the 13th oct and i activated sh404sef on the 14th october. I have checked my google webmaster which is fine and the home page has had loads of content on it that has changed loads over the past couple of days but still google is not visiting the site and it is still calling the site joomla

If you've resubmitted the site map, then you just have to wait for google to get around to crawling your site again. It could take a few days.

This morning google has visited my site. Many thanks for everyone's help. I know it was a huge gamble re-doing my site but i thought in the long run it would be worth it
